Found this moving across the back of my tank. I know it's a snail, but unsure which one. May have came on one of my new nassarius snails. Any ideas?

I was thinking dove snail but not to sure. Let’s see what others say
 
Look at Olive Snails. Also note Olive Snails are predatory to Nassarius Snails.

The images are rather dark.

I took these with the flash on. Little brighter. I'm not sure if this is an olive snail after looking at images.
 
I think it could be an abolone???????? I am unsure as it is pretty small to an abolone snail but the shell looks VERY similar.............?

Thank you for the images. You're right doesn't look like an Olive Snail. Looks terrestrial.
No idea. 🤷‍♀️
